Super Smash Bros. for 3DS & Wii U Thread XV: Kübler-Ross Edition

I just want pictures of costumes. As a trivia fan vs a mechanics fan, power description don't really do it for me.

100% agree. I'm really curious about the Alph alternate costume, the status of the Toon Link pajamas, and where costumes for other characters originate.
 
DK and Diddy don't have a lot to draw from without changing their entire playstyle. DK's meant to be an agile but heavy grappler, and Diddy an annoying spacing type character. Sure, there's moves they could draw from their series, but there aren't many that'd work well with their playstyle. In fact, most characters are like this. They don't come from fighting games, so they have to tweak and make up moves to work well in Smash. But I think they do a good job with what they do, and overall stay very true their characters.

And you'd rather just not have a character in the game than have him in the game with a playstyle people already enjoy?

Yes. I don't care about other people when it comes to products I want to enjoy. Having Fakedorf in the game negatively affects my enjoyment, so of course I want him completely redone, or at the very least cut out.

You could just... idk... not use him? There are quite a few other characters in this game.
 
Except for Marth, Sonic, and Ike apparently haha

Don't forget Zelda.

For what it's worth if any of the changes reported as early in the E3 build (and Zipzo's impressions) stick then Sonic is already a relative improvement, he sounds like mid-tier at worst right now.

Problem is not a lot of people played as him in Brawl and even less people played him during all the pre-release events so it's hard to judge.
 
Wish DK got a few more buffs, I know he was never as bad as Bowser but the heavys need more love. I guess we'll know soon enough.
 
>_> I forget "Sonic sucks" is a thing on the internet.
Didn't you hear? Sonic games were never good, we only thought they were because of advertising.

Or so some people want to claim. It's not bad enough that the more recent games (barring half of Unleashed and all of Colors and Generations) are unanimously considered bad titles, now we have to start revising history and claiming good games suddenly aren't. It's ridiculous.
 
My bad but Let them. Once they found out that their characters are way better than what they heard. They should get a great feeling about it right?

I wish I could say same thing with Phoenix Wright but I still main him in my secondary team.
I am certainly not preventing anyone from becoming unreasonably disappointed.

His buff list seems relatively big, they just don't seem to have redone any of his moves (except his dash) like they did with Bowser and more seemed to just tweak a lot of his moves to be better. So I'm pretty confident he'll be decent this time around.

I don't use him. But it pisses me off when characters I wanted in (Diddy and Ganondorf) have little to nothing related to their games in their movesets.

In every Smash game my mains get nerfed or cut, and the characters I've wanted in have been shit. Forgive me if I don't want someone on the roster as a constant reminder of that. At least Diddy has two moves, Fakedorf has nothing.
 
D.K, Ganondorf, Link, Ganondorf, Diddy, and I'm sure a whole lot more.
I don't see anything wrong with the way DK, Link, and Diddy are depicted. Ganondorf's the only character in the game whose representation rubs me the wrong way.
 
Oh yeah. I figure it's too late at this point but anyone knows if bowser has his regular mario va or the monster grunts?
 
Ganondorf is the only character who's moveset needs to be completely scrapped and redone. Falcondorf is seriously a slap in the face to one of Nintendo's most iconic villains

He's going to be playing Mario next, apparently. You got your wish, PadWarrior!

No Dixie, that's good (I'd rather her be a character than a costume).
I'm guessing anyone they're considering for DLC won't be a full-on alt and just a color reference at best.

E3 impressions of him were very positive at the least. He seems to have gotten a lot of buffs there, but of course we don't know if they carry over to the final build.

No purple? D:

RIP best diddy alt
 
Mario and Falcon impressions:

mario is still good at combos and is apparently also perfect palutena bait. Mario is the same as the e3 build.

https://twitter.com/WeinhofferBen/status/508393443690029057

falcon is the same but seems better than brawl, he's more like melee falcon. Falcon pinch is faster and easier to reverse.

https://twitter.com/WeinhofferBen/status/508393573499547648

falcon kick can still help recover, raptor boost is the same but slower, it doesn't grab, and the knee is easier to sweetspot.

https://twitter.com/WeinhofferBen/status/508393763950325760

Falcon knee back to Melee sweetspot status confirmed? PRAISE THE SUN! (Meaning easier to sweetspot and it's strong again)
 
Someone should ask if we got Sunshine Mario or Flying Mario alts. Otherwise, I won't be touching Mario in favor of the doctor this time.
 
"you'll be happy to know that palutena 0 to deathed me on verismo valley. I got shreked. She did like a 12 hit combo on me as mario"

Damn, Palutena seems like a character you don't want to mess with. Especially since some other impressions implied that she has some big hit boxes on her moves.
 
Mario's downward spiral with each Smash has always been so weird to me

Can he finally climb out of the pit and prove himself worthy as Nintendo's flagship mascot

E3 impressions of him were very positive at the least. He seems to have gotten a lot of buffs there, but of course we don't know if they carry over to the final build.

No purple? D:

RIP best diddy alt

RIP Pimp Named Diddy Kong
 
Sakurai confirmed for franchise bias!!
lol



Diddy is no different from DK in how faithful he is to his series though.

True, but I don't like D.K that much so it doesn't really bother me,

Still no 2P contest or hero mode costumes for Diddy? Come on Sakurai.
